A few minutes ago, the first generation of Apple Vision Pro, the Big Apple’s virtual reality glasses, began being sold in the United States. In recent months, we have seen the progress of visionOS, the glasses software, and developers have been able to prepare their applications for the imminent arrival of Vision Pro. Apple announced that as of today, on launch day, more than 600 apps are compatible with visionOS.
